TRIVIA NOTE:
The series was inspired by the motion picture
The Lords of Flatbush (1974) starring Perry
King, Sylvester Stallone, Henry Winkler and Paul
Mace as a
group of 1958 Brooklyn youths in black leather
jackets who do everything together. In the film,
Sylvester Stallone as Stanley Rosiello said, "
If you ever show my girl a ring like that again,
you know what's gonna be written on your
tombstone? 'I was dumb enough to show Frannie
Malincanico a $1600 ring,' ya got that?"
